How to Make Amazing Simple Pasta
- Bring at least 2 quarts of water to a rolling boil in a large pot. Add 1 pound of pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente (tender but firm to the bite).
- While the pasta cooks, prepare the cheese and butter. Grate 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Cut 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of butter into small pieces.
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain it thoroughly in a colander. Immediately return the pasta to the warm pot.
- Add the butter pieces and grated Parmesan cheese to the pot with the pasta.
- Stir gently until the butter and cheese are completely melted and the pasta is evenly coated.
- Season with salt to taste (start with about 1/2 teaspoon and add more if needed).
- Serve immediately and enjoy your incredibly simple and flavorful pasta!
